Mix It Up Monday

Hello Blogger Buddies,By the time most of you read this post, the challenge I'm posting here will be over....I'm getting in right under the wire again. *sheepish smile* Nevertheless, here's my entry for the Mix It Up Monday (last week's) challenge over at StampTV.

Lee Murphy's challenge is called: Gettn' Sketchy and she's given us two variations of one sketch to choose from OR you can incorporate them both. Here they are:

There are some great entries in the gallery, so check out the StampTV gallery for more great inspiration.

Here's my card for Lee's challenge and as you can see I choose the second sketch to follow.

The stamp is from the new FREE set called "Bold and Beautiful" from Gina K Designs. I colored the butterfly with Copic Markers #YR24, R85, R89, YG06 and YG13. I used my Sakura Gelly Roll Clear pen on the wings for some glitzy highlighting, but I don't think the photo shows it well. The bg is from Basic Grey Sweet Threads and I embossed it using a Sizzix "Retro" emobssing folder. The CS is all from GKD Pure Luxury line - Ivory, Sweet Mango and the one of her new colors Key Lime. The butterfly is framed using Spellbinder Nestability dies.

About Me

I'm a sixty "something" boomer who saw a handmade card one day and thought "WOW! I want to do that". Sooooo, here I am. (Secret) When I was a little girl, paper dolls were my favorite toy; I must have had hundreds of them and I used to cut the models out of my mother's old catalogs and make clothes for them with some other pages from the ladies clothing photos.
I married a Maine (iac) man and now live here in the beautiful state of Maine, however, I was born and raised in the beautiful Adirondacks of NYS. I'm devoted to my wonderful husband, my kids and my grandchildren. I'm blessed in so many ways and I count my blessings every day.
